A program may be using liblvm2app for simply checking a config
setting in lvm.conf. In this case, a full lvm context is not
needed, only cmd->cft (which are the config settings read from
lvm.conf).
lvm_config_find_bool() can now be passed a NULL lvm context
in which case it will only create cmd->cft, check the config
setting asked for, and destroy the cmd.
When setting up a toolcontext, the lib init function
was detecting an error when there was none, and then
it was returning an incompletely initialized cmd struct
instead of NULL. The effect was that the lib would try
to use the uninitialized cmd struct and segfault.
This would happen if a non-fatal error occurred during
cmd setup, e.g. user permission failed on lvmetad socket,
causing cmd to fall back to scanning and not use lvmetad.
The only real error condition is when create_toolcontext
returns NULL. If cmd is returned, the lib can use it.
If a command begins repopulating the lvmetad cache,
and fails part way through, it should set the disabled
state in lvmetad so other commands don't use bad data.
If a subsequent scan succeeds, the disabled state is
cleared.
If duplicate devices exist for a PV, and one device's
size matches the PV size, but the other doesn't, then
prefer the matching device.
If one device is used by an active LV, prefer that device.
When there are duplicate devices for a PV, one device
is preferred and chosen to exist in the VG. The other
devices are not used by lvm, but are displayed by pvs
with a new PV attr "d", indicating that they are
unchosen duplicate PVs.
The "duplicate" reporting field is set to "duplicate"
when the PV is an unchosen duplicate, and that field
is blank for the chosen PV.
Previously, duplicate PVs were processed as a side effect
of processing the "chosen" PV in lvmcache. The duplicate
PV would be hacked into lvmcache temporarily in place of
the chosen PV.
In the old way, we had to always process the "chosen" PV
device, even if a duplicate of it was named on the command
line. This meant we were processing a different device than
was asked for. This could be worked around by naming
multiple duplicate devs on the command line in which case
they were swapped in and out of lvmcache for processing.
Now, the duplicate devs are processed directly in their
own processing loop. This means we can remove the old
hacks related to processing dups as a side effect of
processing the chosen device. We can now simply process
the device that was named on the command line.
When the same PVID exists on two or more devices, one device
is preferred and used in the VG, and the others are duplicates
and are not used in the VG. The preferred device exists in
lvmcache as usual. The duplicates exist in a specical list
of unused duplicate devices.
The duplicate devs have the "d" attribute and the "duplicate"
reporting field displays "duplicate" for them.
'pvs' warns about duplicates, but the formal output only
includes the single preferred PV.
'pvs -a' has the same warnings, and the duplicate devs are
included in the output.
'pvs <path>' has the same warnings, and displays the named
device, whether it is preferred or a duplicate.
Wait to compare and choose alternate duplicate devices until
after all devices are scanned. During scanning, the first
duplicate dev is kept in lvmcache, and others are kept in a
new list (_found_duplicate_devs).
After all devices are scanned, compare all the duplicates
available for a given PVID and decide which is best.
If the dev used in lvmcache is changed, drop the old dev
from lvmcache entirely and rescan the replacement dev.
Previously the VG metadata from the old dev was kept in
lvmcache and only the dev was replaced.
A new config setting devices/allow_changes_with_duplicate_pvs
can be set to 0 which disallows modifying a VG or activating
LVs in it when the VG contains PVs with duplicate devices.
Set to 1 is the old behavior which allowed the VG to be
changed.
The logic for which of two devs is preferred has changed.
The primary goal is to choose a device that is currently
in use if the other isn't, e.g. by an active LV.
. prefer dev with fs mounted if the other doesn't, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't
If neither device is preferred by these rules, then don't
change devices in lvmcache, leaving the one that was found
first.
The previous logic for preferring a device was:
. prefer dev in subsystem if the other isn't, else
. prefer dev without holders if the other has holders, else
. prefer dev that is dm if the other isn't
Support parsing --chunksize option also when converting.
Now user can use cache pool created with i.e. 32K chunksize,
while in caching user can select 512K blocks.
Tool is supposed to validate cache metadata size is big enough
to support such chunk size. Otherwise error is shown.
When creating LV - in some case we change created segment type
(ATM for cache and snapshot) and we then manipulate with
lv segment according to 'lp' segtype.
Fix this by checking for proper type before accessing segment members.
This makes command like:
lvcreate --type cache-pool -L10 vg/cpool
lvcreate -H -L10 --cachesettings migtation_threshold=10000 vg/cpool
to pass since now tool correctly selects default cache policy.
If there's an activation volume_filter, it might not be possible
to activate the rmeta LVs to wipe them. At least inherit any
LV tags from the parent LV while attempting this.
Checking for devices uses is_missing_pv() to check
if there is a device for the PV. is_missing_pv()
is based on the MISSING_PV flag, which does not
always correspond to !pv->dev. When using lvmetad,
a command like:
pvs --config 'devices/filter=["a|/dev/sdb|", "r|.*|"]'
will cause a number of PVs to have NULL pv->dev, but
not the MISSING_PV flag. So, NULL pv->dev needs to
also be checked.
Before executing modprobe for given module name, just check
if the module is not already present in /sys/module.
Useful when checking dm-cache-policy modules as we do not
having matching interface like for targets.

Probably not worth mentioning "segments" here, just state that devices
for an LV can't be all found during the check - it's less mysterious for
user then:

When checking assumed PVs against real devices used for LVs and if
there's no device assigned for an assumed PV (e.g. due to filters),
do log_warn instead of log_error and continue checking LV segments
and associated assumed PVs further, just like we do log_warn elsewhere
in this situation.
This way user will see the warning for each LV which couldn't be
checked completely against real PVs used. Before, we logged only
the very first occurence of missing device for an LV in a VG and we
returned from the function doing this check for all the LVs in VG
immediately which may be a bit misleading because it didn't tell
user about all the other LVs and whether they could be checked
or not.
For example, we have this setup:
[0] fedora/~ # pvs

/dev/sda lvm2 --- 128.00m 128.00m
